9" x 12" oil on canvas panel

I had the opportunity to paint this past Saturday with the Ohio Plein Air Society group in Athens Ohio. I chose a location outside of the left field wall of the Ohio University baseball field looking across the river at the old insane asylum turned museum. It was a great sunny day with a high around 68. There was a game about to begin on the field and someone hit a home run while taking batting practice. I heard the cheers and looked up in time to see it sailing over the fence and came to a stop about 20 yards away from me. Nobody came after it so I kept it as a souvenir from the day. The painting still has a little glare on it. I’ll take a better one later.
